Abstract
CARRAL NOVO, Juan Mariano et al. Cadaveric kidney transplantation with double excreting syst. Rev Cub Med Mil [online]. 2005, vol.34, n.3, pp. 0-0. ISSN 1561-3046.
The first case in Cuba of a successful kidney transplantation from dead donor with duplication of the excreting system is reported. Woodruff's ureteroneocystostomy was independently performed for implanting each of the ureters. The postoperative evolution was satisfactory, until it was necessary to reduce doses of immunosuppressing drugs due to toxic medullar aplasia for cyclosporin, and a chronic rejection of the graft occurred with loss of the renal function with further transplantectomy 6 months after the organ implantation.
Keywords : Urethral duplication; kidney transplantation.
